Reducing array.length triggers reallocation

[milentin via Digitalmars-d-learn]

I've just started learning D and noticed a bug, but wanted to 
confirm it here before reporting it.

According to spec: "If the new array length is shorter, the array 
is not reallocated, and no data is copied. It is equivalent to 
slicing the array". Contradicted by a trivial program:

void main() {
     int[] arr;
     arr.length = 7;
     arr.length = 6; // not ok -- allocation
     int[] slice = arr[0..5]; // ok -- no allocation
}
